"The Garfield Heights Youth Football League (GHYFL) is a non-profit organization that has been formed with the goal of teaching all players the importance of respect, teamwork, dedication and selflessness through the game of football. It is the mission of the GHYFL Board Members, Coaches and Volunteers to provide a positive environment where each player can be proud of themselves, their teammates and their community.

It is expected that each player demonstrate a positive attitude toall coaches and team members on and off the field as well as maintaining a good standing at home, school and in the community. Each player will be taught the fundamentals of what it may take to win, but, also how to handle losing thus creating the understanding that successes can be found in either."
